Carson in the bath playing with his toys. His loves his playing in the bath!
This is my little gangster!! I dressed Carson in a onsie that was to small for him, and then his little pot belly over flowed over his pants, so i thought it would funny to make him look like a little gangster. I think this is going to be a new look for him!I'VE BEEN TAGGED!!!

10 years ago:
I was in middle school! How crazy is that. I was playing the flute, and having a crush on all the boys in school. At school, my girlfriend, Stephanie and I would hurry and eat our lunch and then watch all the boys play basketball. We would just admire all of them. Middle school years were so akward. I was always taller then all the boys, and i thought that bangs were totally in (when they were totally out!)
5 Things on my to-do list:
1. Vacuum. It's always on my to do list! I like to vacuum, and my dog sheds a whole lot! 2. Make dinner. It seems like all day long i think about what I'm going to make for dinner because I'm so tired of making the same things, but when it gets time to make dinner, I end up making something that we've eaten in the past couple of weeks. 3. Organize Carson's clothes. He is growing way too fast and i can't keep up with him! I have to put his old clothes in a rubbermaid, and make sure i have enough clothes for him out. 4. Take things to storage. I hate having clutter in my garage. I have so many things that need to be put away. Its the fact that i have to get the truck, and then pack it up and then take it to storage, and then bring the truck back, just thinking about it makes it go further down the list. 5. Read the Book of Mormon. I need to keep reading!!
5 Places I lived: I was born in Fremont, Ca. Moved to Rocklin, Ca in 92. Lived in Provo and Orem in 03-05, and now currently in Lincoln, CA
5 jobs: 1. Receptionist at Allure Salon 2. Costumer Service/Beginner florist designer 3. BEST JOB EVER... Care Taker for disabled twins 4. Masage Therapist 5. Currently Florist
5 things people don't know about me: 1. Ever since i was little i have had side burns. Im not kidding, there so long and annoying. I can never put the hair behind my ears, or put it in a ponytail. My siblings used to call me Elvis, because of it! I have had a complex ever since!HAHA 2. I'm terrified of the dark! I know that when you get older those fears are supposed to go away, but the dark scares me a whole lot! I can sleep in the dark, but my mind has an evil imagination when it comes to the dark. I always fear that there is someone im my house, or if im outside, some one is going to kidnap me. I think i need therapy! 3. I'm not a night owl at all! Ihave to go to bed NO later then 10:30. I would love to go to bed at 9:00 everynight! Even on the weekends! I have never been able to stay up late at night. 4. I am literally ADDICTED to Cystal Lite! I always have it with my dinners. Chad and i were on a Fruit Punch kick for a really long time. Now i like Rasberry Lemonade. I crave it all day long! 5. I can't sing. Ok so this one is a little obvious, but very depressing. I have never been a great singer. I have never sang in the shower, or in the car, or in public. Church is the only time i will sing. I don't understand why i didn't get that talent. I'm always jealous of everyone around me that can sing.

Hi! Those pictures of carson are adorable, the gangster is hilarious, i love the necklace. He is adorable. I loved reading your tag, I also am afraid of the dark, and I hate it. I wish I wasn't cam thinks i am silly, he always says "what is the boogie man going to get you?" I think so, seriously. I also just went thru carson's clothes. That is annoying, I don't like doing that job. The side burn thing is funny too, and the crystal lite. Dude, atleast your addictions are drinks, mine our currently the wedding cookies, in the pink box, I think keebler makes them, you've got to try them. Maybe not, I think somewhere you said you didn't like candy, WOW! I do, and I wish I didn't. I also, think that "what am I going to make for dinner" crosses my mind more than anything, isn't it ridiculous? I started a recipe blog. It's www.whatyabeencooking.blogspot.com try the hungry man pasta, cam gives it a 10! And it is so easy. I will add your name sometime today or tomarrow so you can go on and add recipes and stuff too ok.
sleeping... I know I am so happy! 11 hours straight last night. It was really hard at first. You just have to go in and say, "it's ok" stay until he calms down, not necessarily asleep, because they need to learn if they wake up they can put themselves back to sleep. when it is bed time I lay carson in his bed awake around 9 or 10, and he goes to sleep. THIS IS HUGE! Because you don't want them thinking you will always put him to sleepl. carson was on the kick for a while of thinking he needed to eat to fall asleep. They are healthy big little guys, they aren't starving, I had to tell myself. So...I just would go in and
give him his binky, how ever many times it took, usually 2 or 3 times a night at first, like a week, then it just continues to get better. So i guess I should ask does he do the binky? If so, you are in business. If not, just go in and soothe him, NEVER PICK THEM UP, and don't talk to much because then they think Hey, if I wake up mommy will hold me, or feed me, and I will get rewarded. So i hope this helps. let me know if you have more questions. I am no expert, but this is what worked for me. Love, Lori
Oh..and I know it is SO HARD, but you know his cries, so unless it is like I am hurt cry, don't go in. IT IS SO HARD I KNOW, trust me, tell Chad he has to encourage you Carson is ok. But let him cry it out, this is also the only way this will work, and trust me it is so WORTH IT! Just think Sleep and energy!
What fun things to know about you. I have to say that all women over think things at night time. I internalize everything. Especially when I'm lying in bed thinking. You aren't the only one. I think it's something to do with the world today. We live in fear of what could happen to us. Isn't it just maddening?
The pictures and factoids are great!!! Can I add your blog to my sidebar so we can keep track of your family post-ward-realignment?? Email me so I can invite you to ours!! swatson @ eaglem.com
Hi. Oh...sad. I didn't know he had acid reflex. I know I need to get Carson sleeping on his tummy, the back of his head is a little flat. But He isn't rolling all the time anymore, and not sitting up either. I am frustrated with that. And he does all the activities, tummy time, boppy, saucer, you name it. Bumbo. Anyway... Im sorry. I know it is so frustrating. It took me about a week with carson. you just have to go with your gut, and listen to the different cries. I know this is hard, trust me. Just go in when you absolutely know you need too. It will work, I promise. But you have to be strong. I know when they are sick, teething, and what not...it's harder. So you just need to decide if you can deal with it for a little while longer while Carson is sick, or if you just want to sleep. Because either way, he will be okay.
I love the gangster outfit!! sooo cute. Hey add me as one of your friends...I will do the same. I had tons of fun at t.j. maxx lets hang out again sometime. Are you still in our ward I do not know where you live! I loved your tag and I will post it on mine in a couple of days. I did like 2 posts today already and I think 3 would be a little much! ha ha I am totally lame and addicted to blogging!
I too am glad to be in the same ward as you guys! I was really scared this morning and had no idea what to expect! This is gonna be really tough, but I am so glad to have you there! Oh and Carson is such a handsome little man! Emma thought so too;)
I WISH I was in your guys' ward. When I was out in the hall with Gabbie, a saw a ton of old 2nd ward families and was feeling more and more jealous. Get this. We are literally the only the house in Lincoln Crossing that isn't it the 2nd or the 1st wards. It's crazy. I can't even tell you how close we were to both. We look across Ferrari Ranch and there is Lincoln 2nd, and we look across the future highway bypass and there is Lincoln 1st. It's like they needed just one more family, so they decided to take us. I don't know. The first few days we were in total denial. I don't understand it, but oh well. Not much I can do. I'm excited to be in the ward with your sister, Mandi, though. She was really nice and introduced herself right away. It should be interesting. At least, I'll get to see you when you come in for Sacrament. =) Your ward does look kind of small. When we were leaving I peaked in and there were lots of empty spots in the chapel.
Definitely keep in touch. I had a blast visiting teaching with you!! Thanks for being a great partner! =)
